My in laws were vacationing at Myrtle Beach but we're made to evacuate. Their trying to get as many people out of its path as possible. Thankfully due to the mountains were just supposed to get some rain off of it here in Roanoke. Hope everyone stays safe!

My wife and I went out last night for some basics in Charleston and it was like driving though a ghost town. Streets were empty, very strange. Weather is still clear, but many are preparing for the worst. We're just going to hang out at home and ride it out. I ask her if she wanted to go for a picnic on the beach Saturday morning ... she declined.

Luckily, we were spared in Miami. However, others further north in Florida and up through the Atlantic states are facing a serious hit from a category 3 or 4. I hope everyone is well and gets through this safely

Frankly I was hoping we'd catch at least some of it, the outer fringes only. We need the water. We don't need 15" of rain, that would be a disaster, but we could definitely use a few inches over the course of a day or so.

At least I'll have a couple of days of growth to wack later.

Hope everything's ok. We just got upgraded to hurricane forecast winds her in inland Charleston so its going to be a fun next 24 hours....

Hope everyone in the path of Matthew is safe and dry; it's swamping us in NC as I type this! Lots of power outage and flooding in my area and from what I just heard there is a curfew in place until tomorrow morning at 8am.
